Hardwood Flooring in Surrey

Main floors in South Surrey, Fleetwood and Fraser Heights often get engineered hardwood with matching stairs. It handles our wet winters and dry heated months with less movement than solid boards and can go over concrete where solid cannot.

We check the subfloor first, lay the boards from a straight line and finish the stairs, transitions and baseboard in the same job. We also do finishing packages for builders working in Surrey.

Solid or engineered?

Solid hardwood is wood all the way through and can be sanded many times. It needs a wood subfloor and a stable indoor climate, so it suits main floors and bedrooms. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top on a layered core that moves far less with humidity, which suits our wet winters and dry heated months, and it can go over concrete.

How we install it

We check the subfloor for flat and screw down anything that moves. Solid hardwood is nailed down over the right underlayment. Engineered is nailed, glued or floated depending on the subfloor. Boards are laid out from a straight reference line, racked so the joints are spread out, and the expansion gap is left at every wall so the floor can move without buckling.

Then the finish work: door casings undercut so the floor slides under, transitions fitted, stair nosings matched, and baseboard installed tight to the new floor.
